Only art music is art, otherwise it would just be called music and popular music wouldn't even be music.

Is this a trick question? Embarrassed


Nobody in their right mind would ask if music is art, that's a prerequisite. Music and art are also not indicators of quality, just to get that out of the way
Classical music isn't dead, it's more alive than it's ever been. It's just not on MTV.

In every culture there is science and there is art. Music, as an expression, voice of the people, is and art that expresses feelings, longings, frustrations, etc, of the people who create it, according to the era/place they live.

I prefer art as music. I don't wanna see that bitch Mona Lisa. I only wanna sing her accompanied by accordian solos

Not sure what you want--  music is art; that is, a man-made creation developed or derived from the audible vibrations caused by striking natural objects in a certain way.

If you mean you want opinions on Art-rock and by extension progressive rock, I think the existence of this place is a good indication that peoples loves them some fancy-ass rock 'n roll, Lucien.

I would like to ask your opinion and views about "Music as art." This may be focused in areas of progressive rock, which I love, but also general and overarching views would be appreciated. Thank you.
